Abstract

The effect of the ligand surrounding on the character and degree of the inner-sphere reorganization during electroreduction of aqua, aquahydroxy, hydroxy, and Edta complexes of zinc(II) is studied in the framework of a quantum-chemical approach. It is established that the most substantial intramolecular reorganization occurs during the transfer of the first electron onto [Zn(Edta)]2–. The solvent's reorganization energy is estimated.
